During the award ceremony, Rohit Sharma said, "It was a great performance today, especially to come and play like that in the final of the tournament. It shows the mentality of the squad. Our seamers are actually working really hard for many years, so it was pleasing for the side to see them rewarded like that. Very clinical. A performance like that will be cherished for a very long time. I personally never thought the ball was going to be doing that much, again it comes back to the skillset of the individuals. That's very rare, you don't see many bowlers who can move it in the air and off the pitch. And the other guys also who took part at various stages, they all played their parts very well. We took all we can from this series, quite pleasing to move in this direction with this kind of confidence in boys. The first game against Pakistan under pressure 4 down, how Hardik and Kishan batted in that pressure got us to that total. And then KL and Virat getting that hundred was brilliant to see. Also Gill, he's in terrific form, he's a batting freak. He likes to keep batting and it's something that works for our team. A lot of the guys at various stages bailed the team out in pressure situations."

IND vs SL Asia Cup final LIVE | Sri Lankan coach disappointed by team's performance against India

Chris Silverwood, Sri Lanka, said after his team's lacklustre performance at the Asia Cup, said, "It is below par. The way we got dismissed is very disappointing, think there's a lot of reflection to be done in the dressing. I think today we've come up against a very high class bowling attack, thought Siraj was superb. At the same time I think we made our own life difficult as well. We came in here with some of the younger bowlers, some of whom have shone. In the batting we've seen Sadeera come through, we've seen some good stuff in there. But today it's been disappointing. I'm sure there'll be a lot of questions asked, but best to assess it in the morning when the emotions have calmed down."
